The opportunity

AI can reduce repetitive effort and surface options humans still decide — when grounded in the right data and oversight.

What the solution does

AI drafts succession briefs from approved talent data with cited performance evidence.

How it works

Limitations and risks

Bias inheritance, stale data, privacy obligations and over-automation of people decisions. Keep humans accountable for outcomes that affect careers.

What implementation requires

Start narrow, define evaluation criteria, involve legal/HR governance early, and measure adoption plus quality — not only model accuracy.
